Thanks for the information. I did not know this. I took a while before I found out that I had to run 'fmtutil' for my changes to take effect! I assume that changes in this cont-loc.tex take immediate effect.

Before changing the source, I tried to put the alternative routine in my document source but that did not work because these \@@ things are not known there. I'll move my hack to cont-loc.tex for the time being...

PS  Sorry for letting this internal sender address out onto the net. That 
    will have bounced your answer directly to me. Luckily I caught this 
    on the list. My reply-to-all template was not correct. I'll fix that.
    Thanks.

Right. There is also cont-new.tex, which is used for patches that didn't
make it into teh core yet. I use cont-loc for local optimizations and so
[speed tests].

Setting up footnotes...

[Joop Susan]

Hallo,

I would like to see my footnote numbers as a superscript number followed 
by a ')'. I need my footnote references to be a bit more visible and 
slightly bigger targets in interactive documents. (A CMSS superscript '1' 
just looks lost ;-))

I have tried:

\def\Myfooternumber#1%
    {\high{#1)}}

\setupfootnotes
    [numbercommand=\Myfooternumber]

This only changes the presentation of the footnote number at the bottom of 
the page, but not the reference in text.

Can anybody tell me which command changes the reference as well?

Joop

This is rather hard coded, so I have to look into it.

I'm only working on one project, so for the time being I can live with 
hacking the source to get it right for this project.

I'm a TEX amateur. I couldn't figure out all the \v!, \@@vnwijze, etc. So 
my solution is crude (but effective!).

I hacked \dofootnote in core-not.tex as follows:

\def\FootnoteNumberCommand#1% This defaults to just the number
  {#1}

\def\dofootnote#1%
  {\iffootnotesenabled
     \doglobal\increment\internalfootreference
     \doifelse{\@@vnwijze}{\v!per\v!pagina}
       {\settrue\pagewisefootnotes}
       {\setfalse\pagewisefootnotes}%
     \doifelse{#1}{-}
       {\let\footnotenumber=\empty}
       {\ifconditional\pagewisefootnotes
          \doifreferencefoundelse{\s!fnt:t:\internalfootreference}
            {\ifnum\currentrealreference>\lastfootnotepage\relax
               \global\let\lastfootnotepage\currentrealreference
               \resetnummer[\v!voetnoot]%
             \fi}
            {}%
        \fi
        \verhoognummer[\v!voetnoot]%
        \maakhetnummer[\v!voetnoot]%
        \def\Myfootnotenumber{\FootnoteNumberCommand{\hetnummer}}
        \rawtextreference{\s!fnt}{#1}{\Myfootnotenumber}%
        \let\footnotenumber=\Myfootnotenumber}%
     \expandafter\dostartfootnote
   \else
     \expandafter\gobbleoneargument
   \fi}

In my document source files I can override FootnoteNumberCommand:

\def\FootnoteNumberCommand#1%
  {[#1]}

or

\def\FootnoteNumberCommand#1%
  {\inframed[offset=0.2ex,strut=no,width=fit,height=fit]{#1}}

It looks like \setupfootnotes needs another option that accepts a 
command...

No doubt you will be able to fix this in a proper way. Unfortunately I 
lack the skills...

I'm using tetex-1.0.7 with updated pdftex binaries (Version 
3.14159-14f-released-20000525-2.1) and an updated context tree (ver: 
2000.5.31).

You can add such a fix in cont-loc.tex which is loaded at runtime. That way
you can keep track of such hacks. 

BTW, the \tx is doing the hardcoded font switch in the footnote number.
Make that \bfx and you get bold ones.
